Re: Intrepid Recommend or Not?

Read thru most of Mychrylsersucks.  Windows were indeed  a problem on
the 1999 300M.  So was road noise if you kept the Goodyear tires.
Chrysler had mine replaced at 10k miles for vibration problems.  When
the new ones started vibrating again after another 10K I bought
Michelins.   Most of the rest of it looked like a lousy dealer too
lazy to look for a bad ground connection.


I looked at a few posts at the gluckman site but with no dates of
postings that I could see the complaint page did not seem particularly
worthwhile.  The poor guy with the rust spots on his 2 cars probably
should be looking at a factory he parks his car near instead of
Chrysler for the problem.  There are tons of white Chryslers in my
area with no paint issues.  If he has 2 separated by many model years
I would look in his neighborhood and not the paint job.
